LINK The climate apocalypse is now, and it’s happening to you

WHAT PEOPLE SAY they know about climate change is a roller coaster of human ignorance—wait, everyone knows that but no one knows that? It’s striking to learn (according to Yale’s climate survey program) that 74 percent of women and 70 percent of men believe climate change will harm future generations of humans, but just 48 and 42 percent, respectively, think it’s harming them personally.

It's not about science, it's not about politics, it's not about a party line agenda...... it's about the individual choices we all do every single day. The simple things.... do we turn all the lights we don't really need?... do we use our car smart and efficiently? (Gotta take 20 rides to Waltmart on a give day just because didn't want to write down a damn list), do we litter out the car window recklessly?, do we polute the sewer tossing the car oil change? do we dispose dead batteries? are we careful with water or do we take a two hours shower?...the list goes on and on and on....... let's fix JFK quote a little bit here..... "It's NOT what the climate change will do to you, it's what you can do to help make it slightly better"

Not enough science is taught to those in school. A general science course is all that is required to graduate in most schools and that does not cover many things. They need a class every year in high school. They also need science taught in middle school.

Then again many people don't know their pocket is being picked or who in the news is lying to them.

There is no reason to be respectful to these people.
